Shadyirishmen Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Well with our 4x3 and 4x4 inch lift we can run 29" super swamper tsl's comfortably with minimal fender trimming. There two benefits to this size one they fit with minimal trimming (as said before) and two they work well with the underpowered EA 82 motor with dual range.

chef_tim Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 28/8.5/14 TSL. Awesome!!!! I'm on my second set. Kinda tough on the EA81, but she can still go. Puts the speedo 20% off. Here's a little taste....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 SSR-02R 27x9.50R14LT Actual Diameter: 27.5 There radials so they don't get flat spots, this is on the 88, with the 3/3 Ozified lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jibs Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Super Swamper TSL's 28 x 8.5 14LT I don't know why I chose them, I remember looking at LOTS of tires before I got them and I guess I just ended up with them. They're awesome! I haven't had any problems with them other than they are a smidge big for the ea81. But with a weber I'm sure I could pull it off quite qell.

NoahDL88 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I'm using the Peugeot 14x6 wheel, i don't air down, but i've never popped a bead yet, knock wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarutex Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I run 28" SSR TSL's on my 14" Peugeot rims. Rims are 14x6 I believe. Bias Ply flexes better, but with as much street driving I do, I decided a radial would be better suited for me. Which has turned out good. I try to air down a little bit, but not a lot, when on the trail. I've lost one tire to a puncture, hit a sharp rock and got a jagged tear about the size of my thumb in it. (this is why I air down now, I was running at like 36psi) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott in Bellingham Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 So Scott, tell us why YOU chose the SSRs, inquiring mind want to know! gearing for one thing, dint want to go bigger then 27 " wanted a radial for quieter ride and on road traction I like the side wall grippies Super Swamper has thee most agressive tread in that small a tire I live in the Northwest where most the offroading will include Mud These tires will most likely end up on my Ultimate Offroader which will be a towed/trailered rig, maybe go with some Kuhmos on the Tow/Daily driver Turbo rig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A DOG Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Looks good; love the siped inner lugs and the sidewalls. Time to get dirty. Maybe you should get some super swampers then maybe just maybe you would like mud more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Maybe you should get some super swampers then maybe just maybe you would like mud more. It has nothing to do with the tires. Super Sweampers work great on the rocks too. I like driving on rocks more than mud; personal preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A DOG Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 It has nothing to do with the tires. QUOTE] I tend to disagree on that one. If you had mud terrains I don't think you woulda got stuck here. Mainly because I went through some mud a while ago that was just as thick as that mud and none of my wheels were on dry dirt.
